This lens appears to have been introduced around 1981.
Minolta MD lenses were replaced by NewMD lenses after about 1980.
At the same time, the word ROKKOR disappeared.
There are no letters “New” on it, but it is New!
As for the condition of the lens.
This lens is cloudy. And there is a small mold.
The torque of the focus ring is too light.
Because of this condition, we are offering this lens at a slightly lower price.
Have fun using it in all sorts of ways!
